Checking is itself the interference. Lifting the lid lets out the steam that was doing the cooking, so the act of finding out how it is going makes it go worse. Some processes only work closed. The discipline is tolerating not knowing for the length of time it takes.

Pick the thing you keep poking at and stop poking it for a set period: the weight, the follower count, the message you sent, the thing you are letting settle. Decide the date you will look, then leave the lid on until then.
